  Unlock the Secrets of the Legendary Hoplite with the Encyclopedia!

  Greetings, Legendary Defenders of Ithaca! Fighting against the seemingly never-ending hoards can seem like an impossible task, after all, you'll encounter giants, beasts, the undead, hybrids, and more. In such a situation, information is power, so what if we told you that a powerful tool is at your disposal? Introducing the Encyclopedia! As you take on wave after wave of fearsome monsters, you gradually learn more about the enemies that you fight. All of this information is stored within the Encyclopedia. How to Use the Encyclopedia: A Guide to Mastery Step 1: Where is the Encyclopedia? Select your character, load the world map, then look to the bottom left of the screen, there you'll see a scroll. Click on it, this is where you will find your encyclopedia. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/7416ba875fa852ca9b10c671a93a1cd18a961c1d.gif Step 2: Encountering Monsters. If you're new, you'll notice that the Encyclopedia will be (mostly) empty. To begin recording data, simply take up arms and defend Ithaca! As you encounter and vanish an opponent, you'll learn more about it. This information will be stored as a new entry in your Encyclopedia. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/6cb459fb2072adf7a49703b9221a098e09b69549.png What you've learned! Each monster is unique, from the weak Skeleton Swordsman type 1 to the deadly Death Cavalry. The data on each monster can be split into three sections. The first is the general stats {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/518bb9a68c13f17cf88d6ce3959b96b39f8b32a1.gif The second is the special stats {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/854d68640d202ac2d8af73766417fcde9b8b004b.gif All monsters have these two sections. However, some monsters have a third, the special abilities. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/9115829507ab2792833811d9996416db083245f1.png Strategic Insights How can this information help you?

  Legendary Hoplite's Arachne's Trial First Update!

  Greetings Legendary Defenders of Ithaca! First and foremost, a huge thank you from us to you all for playing Arachne's Trial, and for the amazing feedback that you've given us. We've been going over everything that you've all written and have prepared an update for the game. With this update, we'll be introducing new features, addressing various issues, and generally improving the gaming experience. Main Changes New Graphical Options: Vsync can be toggled on and off, and you can now limit the frame rate of the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/f28555c476f30d6d9a527be428d76b053472e2bc.png Spider's Level Balance: Many people have commented about the balancing of the spider levels, as such we have gone over the balancing to make them a bit easier, without diminishing the fun. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/7f76c0617768063782e3e79f71022db22eb81df8.gif Prologue Achievements: As the achievement system that we have has had multiple issues, from bugs to general enjoyability, we have removed all but two achievements for the prologue; the first for defeating Ajax and the second for defeating Arachne. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/8e90243cd09f69dd549d7b5f5d9519f255b9b4f9.png Audio Enhancement: Video volume will now dynamically adjust according to the global volume settings.

Fixed a crash that triggered when entering an area to play, followed by quicking visiting various in-game pages. (This would cause the gamepad to freeze, making it impossible to press anything else).

  Embark on a Heroic Odyssey: Discover Legendary Hoplite's Arachne's Trial!

  We meet again, Legendary Defenders of Ithaca! With the defeat of Ajax peace returned to the lands, but alas, it was but a temporary peace. The undead were but a vanguard of the hordes, and now the nightmare begins again. Spiders, vast hordes of them, led by the legendary Arachne have been sighted and are quickly approaching the city. We must once again unite and defend our homes, least we become food for these monstrous beasts. Arachne's Trial has started! Brace yourself for an extended taste of the action from the Legendary Hoplite, as this new prologue covers the first 10 levels of our first chapter, letting you first revisit your legendary fight against Ajax, and then progress further until you meet the mother of all spiders, Arachne herself. Key Features: Saved Progress: You asked and we delivered. This time, progress in Arachne's Trial will be saved to the full game, so if you play in our prologue, and then decide that you want to take on the full game, you'll be able to seamlessly continue from where you left off. In short, your heroic feats won't go unnoticed. Now there’s no excuse not to join, grab your spear and shield, and come home with this shield or upon it! Enchanting New Music: As the great Greek poet put it, "Noble and manly music invigorates the spirit, strengthens the wavering man, and incites him to great and worthy deeds." So, fight your way to the two bosses, Ajax and Arachne, and you'll be treated to a very special soundtrack that we're sure you'll all enjoy! 10 Levels of Tower Defense Mayhem: As said by Euripides, "The god of war hates those who hesitate!" Ten levels await you, take on the undead hoards, then fight the monstrous Arachne and her spider swarms. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44810302/0513aea59e48070fe54e61d3f6ac7bae6a4a1a6f.png Versatile Combat Units: At your side are the Phalanx, Barrel Thrower, Walls, Archer Tower, Catapult, and the Cavalry.
